My aunt feels supported and is maintaining her home independent living.
Cygnet provide an absolutely excellent service. They are consistently professional, unfailingly well-organised, caring, attentive and alert. The staff provide my father-in-law with an extremely high standard of care, and we can confidently rest easy knowing that Cygnet are looking after him. I would recommend Cygnet very highly indeed.
The carers who come to us every day twice a day are cheerful, kind, respectful and efficient, without being bossy, they have looked after us for nearly eight years. I can't fault them its my husband they are looking after now but always ask how I am and notice if I am feeling overwhelmed. They have regular training courses on all aspects of care. The care company owner has chosen her staff with sensitivity, displaying her knowledge of clients in need, she is always available should we need to talk, and help during some difficult aspects with my husband. I would not hesitate to recommend them. They are all wonderful.
Although my Dad had specific needs and he could be difficult at times, there was never an instance where the care team gave the impression of being inconvenienced and continually provided what my family and I believed to be care with the utmost professionalism.
From the team in the office to the team on the ground, the work ethic and consideration to my Dad and the wider family members was beyond reproach.
I would highly recommend this care team to anyone who had a loved one with care requirements from the most basic to the the most complex.
Excellent care provided for my mum for last 3 years. Carers always go above and beyond what is expected of them and genuinely care about mums well being. They act promptly with any concerns and communication is excellent to keep the family well informed. I am reassured that when I can't be there, all the carers and office management are acting in mums best interest at all times.
Cygnet Care have looked after my widowed father in his home for many years, during which time he has gone from relatively independent to totally dependent (bed-bound and with dementia). The Manager, the care staff, and the administrators are all such humane, common-sense-driven, experienced, easy-to-talk-with professionals who bring a wealth of experience, care and skill to what is such a responsible and intimate job. I have learned I can trust them completely, and rely on their guidance and support. My father has dementia and now thinks he is not in his own home, but he frequently remarks on how cared for he feels and how lucky he is, which is the ultimate tribute to Cygnet. Cygnet provide such a person-centred and holistic care approach, they look after the home and dad's cat, seeing everything in the round. They create community, and as a single child of an elderly parent without other family, I am immensely grateful. I recommend this company to anyone whole-heartedly.
But he is no longer able to answer himself directly. The carers are all extremely kind and helpful, always taking the time to ensure he is comfortable and his needs are met. We are delighted and grateful
During that time I or more importantly my Mother, have had no complaints about the care she receives.
Quite the opposite.
All staff can be relied on, and my Mother looks forward to them arriving.
Communication between all staff is most important, even more so between Management and myself, as I need to travel for 2 hrs to visit.
Overall, Cygnet get 5 stars.
Very happy as a newcomer
We felt very comfortable talking to the owner about what could be provided,
To begin with it was Monday to Friday as weekends were difficult to cover at that time, but within a few weeks we had7 days a week cover
All the staff who have looked after myhusband have been cheerful, mindful of my husband's difficulties and have provided excellent care. The office staff have always contacted me should there be a problem with them running late due to a problem.
Care plans have been amended with the changing care, we have a fully comprehensive contract, and copies of all relevant documents.
His care has increased to 4 hours on a Monday morning to give me assistance with household duties.the owner has stepped in when needed to assist in his care, also provided me with the time to discuss issues that have occurred with his ongoing . I am extremely happy with the service provided
We are extremely pleased with Cygnet Care. All staff are very efficient.
Cygnet Care are friendly, proactive and very willing to help. They will let me know if there are any problems and suggest solutions. They are always approachable and have my father's best interests in mind.
My carers are normally very prompt and arrive on time. I am informed if there is a hitch and a substitute is provided promptly. They are without exception helpful and willing always.
Friendly staff, very helpful. Meet all my needs.
Staff behave professionally, and we would strongly recommend Cygnet.
We usually get the same staff every week, and have been happy with the occasional cover staff.
The agency has been able to perfectly match the profile of carer to Mum's requirements and the service provided is first class.
We live in a rural village location which the Agency is happy to support - unlike many others.
We are always informed in advance on the very rare occasions there is a difficulty in fulfilling a planned visit and an appropriate arrangement is mutually agreed.
Over the past year Mum has progressed from not accepting that she needed the support of a carer to now looking forward to each visit and the assistance with personal hygiene, light cleaning and a friendly person to chat with.
I am, as always, really happy with my care provider and all staff; nothing is ever too much trouble. Always kind, considerate and always ask if I need anything else before they leave the property. They will have discussions if I bring up any concerns and get me the relevant advice and help if needed.
The care staff are very good - excellent, prompt. Will do jobs (unusual perhaps - if asked). Very polite and willing.
I am very pleased with everything I can see.
All carers are helpful and friendly nothing is ever too much trouble.
